Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Apple juice
- 1.5 cups Pear juice
- 3 tablespoons Gelatin powder (unflavored)
- 2 tablespoons Honey (optional, for sweetness)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, pour 1 cup of apple juice and 1 cup of pear juice.
Sprinkle the gelatin powder evenly over the surface of the juices and allow it to bloom for 5 minutes. Do not stir initially; this ensures even absorption.
After 5 minutes, place the saucepan over low heat. Begin stirring gently but consistently until the gelatin has completely dissolved. This should take about 2-3 minutes. Be careful not to let the mixture boil.
Once the gelatin has dissolved, remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the remaining 0.5 cups of apple juice and 0.5 cups of pear juice to cool the mixture slightly. If desired, stir in honey at this stage, adjusting sweetness to taste.
Pour the gelatin mixture into a shallow 9x9-inch pan or into silicone molds if you prefer fun shapes.
Refrigerate the pan or molds for at least 3 hours, or until the mixture is fully set and firm to the touch.
Once set, if using a pan, cut the jigglers into square or rectangular pieces using a sharp knife. If using silicone molds, gently pop them out to retain the molded shapes.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
